Amy
Dental Assistant
A proud and true North Dakotan farm girl at heart, one of the best pieces of advice she’s ever received is “just rub a little dirt on it.” There’s nothing too hard or difficult she can’t do! Amy finds inspiration in nature, music, and relationships. She believes in smiling instead of frowning since it takes more muscles to do! She always loved going to the orthodontist as a child and always told the assistants that she would someday work at a place like that and make people smile! She is passionate about helping others feel confident and comfortable and wants to make a difference in people’s lives. The best way she likes to relax is with family, friends, and her dog. In her free time, she enjoys flying and farming with her boyfriend.

Christmas is her favorite season, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ and spending time with family. Her children, their spouses, her husband, and those grandbabies are her greatest pride and joy.

Dani is a family girl through and through. Some of her favorite times and fondest memories involve spending one week every summer with her family at a cabin in northern Wisconsin. Spending time with her mom and dad has always brought her joy. Her favorite dessert is her grandma’s “green dessert,” which is a cold pistachio dessert with a crisp buttery crust. She loves to snuggle with her kids. Her daughter’s innocence and love for everyone and everything inspires her to be the best mom and wife she can be! She believes in telling your loved ones you love them whenever you get the chance because life is short. In addition to her children, she is very proud of her DANB certification. (The Dental Assisting National Board exam is a challenging test, with up to 255 questions, that demonstrates knowledge and skills and is a key milestone in dental assisting careers.) Dani’s certification is proof of how passionate she is about her job.
